Watched the show, and as i walked around, my handphone was out of battery. (of all times..and i just charged it yesterday night) Walked in pyramid till 7 and began to sit bus to my mother's hs in ss1. (went to visit her and to stay there overnight)
HOWEVER, it seems that my mother was out!! No one was at home. (4x great-No phone, no one helpless, cant call them) I didnt call back then because i comprehend that my cousin was outstation, my mother wont go out alone and it's very rare for my mother to be out at this time, plus the fact that i had told her the other day that i will be coming over.
Stranded, and since i dont really know the neighbours here, i began to walk back to lrt Tmn Bahagia just to make a phone call. Called, and it seems that now, someone was at home-my cousin was back from Johore. (I should have just waited there in front at the gate)
Tired and exhausted, i began to walk back home. As i walked, i saw a group of 5-6 people grouping at a bus stop i had to walk pass. To be on the safe side, i crossed the road to the other side.
A few seconds later, a man of around my age grabbed my shirt and asked where was i heading. In that split second, there was a haste rush of adrenaline in my body as i prepared to run.
However, that guy seized my shirt to prevent my escape. I could see that his slower friends were crossing the road to aid him. I began to scream for a while when i realized how pointless it was- No one will come to my rescue and to be truthful, i felt quite embarrassed to keep on shouting.
I was carrying thousands of ringgit with me (includes the value of my watch mp3 etc) and i do not wish to be robbed.
Subsequently, i tried to overpower that guy before his friends could come and gang up against me. I realized there was only one way of escape- To run to the roadside. At most, i will kamikaze and die together. (just an exaggeration. of coz i am not meaning that money is more important that life and i do not wish to die..just dont want to lose both..)
Thinking back, i wonder how heartless men can be. It's impossible for the motorists not to realize what's happening and to think that they did not even hon to scare the robbers away, but all just drove through! ( and maybe..just be a kpc and said its none of my business)
I struggled and i managed to drag myself to the road as a car was drawing nearer and nearer, and finally, the coward let go of my shirt. I myself ran as fast as possible to avoid being hit by the car. All that happened in just less than 30 seconds i think, though it seemed forever to me at that time.
I kept praying, and Thank God, they did not follow me. I ran and kept on looking back to ensure they were not trailing me. I finally reached home a while later and was quite traumatised of what had occurred.
My cousin saw my condition and i narrated the whole incident, he drove his superbike to the bus stop to teach those gangsters a lesson. ( he is quite a fighter..) However, they ran away...
Well.. in that short period of time, a thousand thoughts came across my minds with death as one of them. i thought i may really just die ( or maybe suffer severe injuries) and i began to ponder that night...
WHAT IF I REALLY DIED???
i could sense that God is telling me He may call me 'home' anytime and i will need to be ready at all times, that i need to dedicate my entire life unto Him.
(ps. it was the only time i think that i regretted so much studying so diligently for my exams..because i certainly neglected God during that period of time. lol. i mean..whats the use of scoring straight A's when i failed God's test to heaven?)

21/08/08- Part 1- -Predicaments-
This was certainly one of the most disastrous day of the year. The day started with the journey back to college at 7am, and since it was still early, i followed my brother to fetch his girlfriend before having breakfast together.
By 9, the drizzle turned to a heavy downpour, and as my brother decelerated, a weird sound transpired from no where. We suspected the tyre to be the source of the sound and thus, my bro began to stop at a nearby bus stop to check on the tyres.
Sure enough, one of the tyres was punctured. My bro then attempt to look for tools to change it when he couldn't find the appropriate tools to do so. He had to call for help. Since it was raining, the mechanics were reluctant to come instantly.
'Tick tock tick tock goes the clock' and 2 hours over passed before the help finally arrived. We were like quite frustrated and wearied of waiting a long time ago. After all, we had given thousands and thousands of business to that particular shop and my cousin is certainly a big customer. What an ungrateful bunch of people. haiz..
By the time i reached college, it was already 12. (Great, now i was sooo late for my outing with my friends and they certainly will punish me with a cup of starbucks..) I went for my enrolment, and as the 'Curses of Unluckiness' continued, my cheque was defective and i couldn't enrol on that day itself. (Double great, now i have to queue up on monday and wait with all other 'last minute Intians'.)
I wanted to withdraw money, but i lost my IC a couple of days ago, and as i walked passed my favorite bookstore, "Ichiban", the ''tauke niau'' called me.
"Hey, you left your IC here few days ago after buying your books."
I was like, "What!! After i had made a new IC yesterday???!!!!!''
"ARRGHHH"
I calmed myself down and walked back towards college as i prepare my journey to S.Pyramid.
Thank God, my veryyy good friend HTH (coz he could drive. lol) was there and he fetched me there or i would have to sit a bus. The day wasnt so bad huh? I certainly hoped the day would turn out better.
Once reached there, parking was almost full in every floor.
"What are all these ppl doing here? Today is thursday, now is 1 sth and dont they need to work?? Haiz..''
The movie starts at 2 and my another friend rushed us as each minute passed (almost..)
Found a parking, and as fate could be, my friend scarred the car as he parked. (Triple great, seems like his first accident and well.. was he wiping his tears just now?? lol)

6 Basic Truths-Part 2
4. God has Standards of sexual behaviour for His children.
God takes sexual standards seriously, and He wants to be heard on the matter. Clearly, premarital intercourse is outside His standards. God has already rammed His own stake into the ground.
Among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality or any kind of impurity or of greed..nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking which are out of place.
Ephesians 5:3-4
Not even a hint?? That, my friend is quite a stake.
5. God's love is Not based upon your ability to meet His standards.
God's love for you is unconditional. it never changes. Before you were formed in the womb,He loved you. You are the apple of His eyes. His love for you has no limits and His love for you never wanes. If you masturbate, that fact doesnt lessen your value to Him. If you get up under a girl's bra, God doesnt regret having sent His Son to die for you.
But He will continue to chase you desperately, aching to reach you before it was too late and your heart was too hardened.
6. Rules are Part of A Vibrant Relationship with Christ.
When you break God's standards, the Lord doesnt reject you but you cant be close to Him. The implication was that continued sexual activitu would hurt you intimacy with Christ. God's rules werent just sets of arbitrary. kill joy regulations. Instead His rules actually aim to set you free to live fully and to avoid dangerous traps.
